Soapstone Oil Burner Droplets

The Soapstone Oil Burner Droplets is a lovely aromatic lamp made of polished and laquered soapstone. Soapstone is a natural product, which sometimes comes dark, sometimes light, sometimes marbled. As a result, each individual product is unique so the product may not look the same as in the picture.

The oil container can be removed, so it can easily be cleaned.

In addition, the Oil Burner/Diffuser features droplet shapes cut out in the base.

Soapstone is relatively soft because of its high talc content, talc having a definitional value of 1 on the Mohs hardness scale. Softer grades may feel similar to soap when touched, hence the name. No fixed hardness is given for soapstone because the amount of talc it contains varies widely, from as little as 30% for architectural grades such as those used on countertops, to as much as 80% for carving grades.

Soapstone is easy to carve, it is also durable, heat-resistant and has a high heat storage capacity. It has therefore been used for cooking and heating equipment for thousands of years. As a result, it is a good material for oil burners.
